Agronomic and production characteristics of sunflower hybrids: NS Oskar and NS Fantazija

Abstract

The results of seed and oil yield obtained from the trials and production plots, single out sunflower hybrids NS Oskar and NS Fantazija as very promising and potentially leading in Serbia. They were created by breeding process at the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops, Novi Sad. Hybrids are medium early ie. late maturity sunflower hybrids, have high yielding potential and high oil content. They are adjusted to different agro ecological conditions because they have wide adaptability to the different conditions of production. They also possess a high degree of tolerance and resistance to major parasites in the region, such as downy mildew, Phomopsis, white rot, broomrape etc. Hybrid seed is of excellent quality and germination. This paper presents the results of seed yield in trials from Department for variety testing of Ministry of Agriculture and environmental protection of the Republic of Serbia, as well as the results achieved in small-plot trials of the Institute of Field and Vegetable Crops and results from farm producers.

Rezultati prinosa semena i ulja dobijenih iz ogleda i sa proizvodnih parcela izdvojili su hibride suncokreta NS Oskar i NS Fantazija kao vrlo perspektivne i potencijalno vodeće u Srbiji. Hibridi su stvoreni procesom selekcije u Institutu za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo, Novi Sad. Hibridi priradaju grupi srednje kasnih tj. srednje ranih hibrida suncokreta, pokazuju visok potencijal rodnosti i imaju visok sadržaj ulja u semenu. Prilagođeni su gajenju u različitim agroekološkim uslovima jer imaju široku adaptabilnost na različite uslove proizvodnje. Imaju i visok stepen otpornosti i tolerantnosti prema najznačajnijim parazitima suncokreta u regionu, kao što su Phomopsis, bela trulež, rđa, vodovod i dr. Seme hibrida je odličnog kvaliteta i klijavosti. U radu su prikazani rezultati prinosa semena komisijskih ogleda Odeljenja za priznavanje sorti Ministarstva poljoprivrede i zaštite životne sredine Republike Srbije, kao i rezultati ostvareni u mikro ogledima Instituta za ratarstvo i povrtarstvo i poljoprivrednim gazdinstvima u Srbiji.
